Weather in May
Temperature
Diyabubula marks the arrival of May with an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.3°C (81.1°F), hardly different from April's 27.6°C (81.7°F). Diyabubula experiences a nighttime temperature average of 19.1°C (66.4°F) during May.Heat index
The heat index in May is computed to be a tropical 31°C (87.8°F). Continuing activity during long-lasting exposure might induce tiredness and result in heat cramps.Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
